  • A
    $\frac{q^2}{2C}$
  • B
    $\frac{q^2}{C}$
  • C
    $2qC$
  • D

The mean electric energy density between the plates of a charged capacitor is (here $q$ = charge on the capacitor and $A$ = area of the capacitor plate).

$A$ capacitor is used to store $24 \, \text{watt-hour}$ of energy at $1200 \, \text{V}$. What should be the capacitance of the capacitor?

$A$ capacitor of capacitance $C$ is fully charged. It is discharged through a small coil of negligible resistance embedded in a thermally insulated block of mass $m$ and specific heat capacity $S$. If the temperature of the block rises by $\Delta T$,find the potential difference across the capacitor.
